The Worlds Fastest Vacation

This past week Ty and I and some friends went down to St. George, where the weather was warm and the world was beautiful and green.  I was going to add that the people were friendly, to really complete the idyllic picture, but...they weren't, not at all actually.  So we'll leave it at warm and green.  We left on Wednesday at 10ish, and came back Thursday night.  It was a really quick trip, but it was absolutely worth it to be in warm weather for at least a few hours. The boys rode their mountain bikes a ton, and we all golfed on Thursday.  It was really fun...to prove it, here are some pictures :)

 
The first pic is before the first mountain bike ride of the trip.  Eric-Derald-Ty-Matt-Jessica.  Me and Nat opted for shopping during this ride...Once again, see how happy Ty is in the sun!  I think we'll be moving to St. George or Bloomington soon.  Especially because we found our dream home in Bloomington, and became best friends with its owners...
Matt, Ty, and Derald showing off their golf poses.  Eric would have been there had we not been forced by the golf cop to split our group because we were holding up the golfers behind us.  Lame...the golf cop, not the poses.  The poses are sweeet. 

First of all, killer golf swing Jess (in the back left of the first picture).  Jess was a really good golfer, and had the cutest golf bag I'd ever seen.  Now that that's out of the way, killer baseball form Ty!  This was the first time I'd ever been with Ty, but he'd always told me he was an awful golfer, which isn't true!  He did really good, his only problem is he gets insanely bored, hence the baseball pose...

I got to drive the cart.  My favorite part of golfing.  Be sure to check back in next August, because since we're living on a golf course this summer, I'm planning to become a stellar golfer.  I would add more pictures, but like I said, insanely short trip...hopefully we'll go again soon!

Rock Family Fun...


This past Sunday my family came down to see me and Ty's place, and we had a lot of fun rocking out.  Rock Band is seriously so much fun, for all ages.  My favorite thing about the game, and karaoke in general, is the initial "oh no, I couldn't sing...you go ahead" and etc. etc. that people give.  Then, a few songs in, everyone is wanting to get a hold of the mic, something about karaoke just allows people to let loose!  Trust me, I would know, I absolutely love karaoke, and I am absolutely the worse singer ever.  Anytime anyone wants to join our band let us know! We're saving up to get Amenhotep some tats.  
My brothers and Ty performing a mind blowing rendition of...wait I dont remember.
Two of my cute nieces, and my cute mom...Makenzy is always smiling!  I hope I have as smiley a baby as her!

Syd on drums, Marc on foot peddle action...

Lance on guitar, Jill and Aidan on mic...

Misfit played outside all day, so he was exhausted when we finally brought him back in.  He's using his little stuffed puppy friend as a pillow, how cute...

Another Year...Another Crazy Week...

Ty and I both got a year older, wiser, and a lot more fun this week!!!  We both had stellar birthdays, and were able to prolong the celebrating for a whole week, (in my case, Ty just got to start celebrating early). It's been a fun week for us, now I've got to remind myself that I'm still in school...and keep Tyler from eating Misfit while I'm gone.
I tried to make Misfit look festive for Ty's birthday, but
 the balloon lasted on his collar for approximately 10 seconds, but it was long enough for Ty to see it so that's good...It was hilarious watching him though because he was terrified of the balloons!
                                     
   


About a week ago Ty decided to diagnose himself with "seasonal depression", which in his case simply means he's sick of the snow, so I decided to brighten up our house a little bit for his birthday...so that's why our house looks like learning to cut day at preschool, or the pre-prom party...But see how happy the sunshine makes Ty!!
